I’ll tell you what we CAN do…
Thinking about this hyper achieving version of me always makes me think about myself as a new mum…
Struggling with a newborn after a traumatic birth and I genuinely thought I needed to get my sh*t together to feel better
You know like if I could create some magical system used by ‘those’ women on Instagram who apparently wake up at 5am to decant strawberries into aesthetically pleasing jars while their toddlers calmly do Montessori activities in beige linen
So obviously as the “safety in being organised gal” I went hard
Every bottle tracked and every nap analysed like I was working for the FBI
Every tiny decision researched in seventeen Facebook groups full of exhausted women typing “Following x”
But none of it actually made me feel better
Of course it didn’t when I’d convinced myself that “If I can just do everything perfectly, then nobody gets hurt”
No wonder I was done in pal
It’s wild that your brain will absolutely sacrifice your joy if it thinks vigilance equals safety
And the real work, the bit that undoes YEARS of conditioning that keeps us stressed and running, running, running on the never ending tread mill
Is to meet them, these thoughts that are running your mind and trying desperately to keep you safe
Meet them, see how hard they’re working
And then build the muscles in the part of your brain that go the other way
That trust your decisions
That invite creativity
That want to be free and fun and successful without treating life like something to win
Caught in the act is where we change your strategy from “make a to do list, draw up a plan, talk yourself out of it”
To getting it done
Because you’re missing 100% of what’s possible hiding behind trying to “get it right”
6 months, intense work that leaves you feeling alive, successful, financially fulfilled and creative as f
I’m taking beta clients on right now, so what’s it to be?
Looking back in 6 months thinking “how am I STILL here?!”
Or sending me a dm and looking back like “I wish I’d done this years ago, I’ve done so much”
